United Methodist Church Bishops Call for Charges Against Bishop Talbert Who Conducted Same-Sex Marriage in Alabama — crossmap.christianpost.com — Readability: "Today, bishops of the United Methodist Church (UMC) publicly rebuked a retired colleague who recently conducted a same-sex marriage celebration in Alabama. The UMC Council of Bishops statement calls for charges to be filed against retired Bishop Mel Talbert for both "conducting a ceremony to celebrate the marriage of a same gender couple" and "undermining the ministry of a colleague." Conducting such ceremonies is expressly prohibited in the church's governing Book of Discipline, which all ordained UMC clergy have vowed to uphold."
